Because the hard problems that you pointed out have been fixed. We do no
longer return "schily" author ID, etc.
That wasn't the problem I mentioned. And the problem I mentioned
hasn't been fixed yet. (e.g. cdrecord/cdrecord.c still contains an
unmodifiable section)

That is not what I said, don't put your words into my mouth.
That's how I interpreted your message. I did include your answer so
others can easily check this.
Should I try to be more carefull about how I speak of these things?

I would like to ask you to give us some days to find a peacefull
solution without starting another flamewar. But, hey, you already did it
by Cc'ing debian-legal and so attracting the trolls ASAP. Very
diplomatic. NOT.
I did post to debburn-devel first, and only after I didn't get any
response, and it seemed to me that this wouldn't be fixed, did I post
to debian-legal.
Also, it's possible that I should report a "serious"[1] bug for this,
but I wanted to ask about this from debian-legal first, to know if
others agree that this is a problem.
ps. It seems that some messages in this thread[2,3] were posted only
to debian-legal and not to debburn-devel. I'm not sure about what the
usual policy is in multi-list threads, so I'll answer to same threads
which the post I'm answering to used.
